First Call for Abstracts - Top Predator Session at 2010 Ocean Sciences Meeting (BO23)
The 2010 Ocean Sciences Meeting The upcoming Ocean Sciences Meeting will be held in Portland, Oregon, between 22 and 26 February 2010. The Ocean Sciences meeting, the world's largest gathering of ocean scientists, is jointly sponsored by the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO), The Oceanography Society (TOS), and the American Geophysical Union (AGU). Scientific Session "BO23: Recent Technological Advances for Studying the Ecology of Top Marine Predators" Description: The use of sophisticated electronic devices and other advanced technologies for the study of marine top predator ecology is becoming routine, resulting in new insights into the physical and biological processes that influence predator behavior and distribution. This session seeks to bring together biologists, oceanographers, and engineers who are involved in the development and application of cutting-edge instrumentation or novel methods to study the ecology of predatory fishes, marine turtles, seabirds, pinnipeds, and cetaceans. Presentations on the use of technologies such as electronic tagging, hydroacoustics, bioacoustics, autonomous or remotely operated vehicles, and remote sensing are welcome. Contributions from outstanding students are particularly encouraged. This session is co-sponsored by AGU's Biological Oceanography and Marine Technology Sections. Conveners: Daniel Palacios, Mark Baumgartner and Steven Bograd Abstract deadline: 15 October 2009 Conference details: http://www.agu.org/meetings/os10/index.php For further information about this session please contact: Daniel Palacios NOAA/NMFS/SWFSC 1352 Lighthouse Avenue Pacific Grove, CA, USA 93950-2097 831-236-6905 daniel.palacios@noaa.gov Mark Baumgartner Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution MS #33, Redfield 256 Woods Hole, MA, USA 02543 508-289-2678 mbaumgartner@whoi.edu Steven Bograd NOAA/NMFS/SWFSC/Environmental Research Division 1352 Lighthouse Avenue Pacific Grove, CA, USA 93950-2097 831-648-8314 steven.bograd@noaa.gov
Abstract submission deadline The deadline for abstract submission for the 2010 Ocean Sciences Meeting -- 15 October -- is fast approaching! This is a reminder to submit your relevant abstract to the session "Recent Technological Advances for Studying the Ecology of Top Marine Predators" (BO23). In addition to contributed presentations, this year we will have three invited presentations covering exciting technological advances in the study of marine top predators. Please feel free to forward this email and encourage your colleagues and associates to attend.
